Itinerary and trip notes
Itinerary: day by day
Day 1 – Alice Springs to Kings Canyon
DEFAULT PICK UP: Haven Backpacker Resort, 06:10am
Kick of your adventure with an optional camel ride at an outback camel farm (own expense) before we make our way to Kings Canyon Resort for lunch. Make sure you’ve got your hiking shoes on as we journey to Kings Canyon and explore the Amphitheatre, breathtaking North and South Walls, the Lost City, and Garden of Eden. After an outdoor dinner, enjoy sitting around the fire with new friends before star-gazing from the comfort of your swag (Aussie bedroll). (LD)
Day 2 – Kings Canyon to Uluru
We’ll be up early today, as we hit the road to make our way to Uluru. After lunch at our campground, get up close and personal with the Rock as you walk around a spectacular section of the base. You will then get an insight to the local Aboriginal culture from your guide before watching the desert sunset over Uluru. It’s time to fire up the BBQ for dinner. Overnight in swag (Aussie bedroll). (BLD)
Day 3 – Uluru to Alice Springs
Witness a magical Uluru sunrise then visit the Cultural Centre to further your insight into the amazing Anangu way of life. The 36 domes of Kata Tjuta will fascinate you, as you explore the majestic features of this ancient geological formation during a Valley of the Winds hike. Your tour will end here at Ayers Rock, where your tour guide will take you to the airport, or to a free connecting airport shuttle bus. (B)
